Who else is going to play Imperator on release and loving hate it but then begrudgingly come to enjoy it three or four expansions from then?

I know I mean did they gently caress it up somehow in the meantime. This is Paradox.

No they have kept it safely away from Groogy.

I'm going to buy it for the eu4 content pack and then refund it because it needs 2 more years to finish

Don't wait 2 years, just keep your eyes out for groogy getting put on it. That's when the downslide will start

Probably Parthians or the Picts (assuming they aren't so far from anything its boring). Idk anything about Imperator other than its Roman Republic era, but if it has late enough end date I might try to play a Germanic tribe and conquer Roman Britain like the Angles and Saxons did IRL

Too early. The enddate is before the Romans even capture britain.

I just bought the huge fuckoff bundle. I've never played CK2 before, what DLCs should I enable/disable. I'm reading that the Sunset Invasion one isn't great for a new player

Turn them all on, and then, turn CK2 off.

Stealing a post from the Games thread, here’s a new article that goes into more detail about the stuff that’s already been announced, and a reddit post by the author that goes into some smaller details that didn’t make it into the article. Info comes from a conversation with Henrik:


Some pretty interesting stuff, being able to dig up actual dirt on characters for intrigue sounds cool. Seems like Muslims will use the old “characters that like you more give you more levies” system while feudal characters rely on actual feudal contracts where they have to provide x% of the troops and income to their lord but can use leverage to try to force a better contract.

Also, no wacky poo poo (supernatural stuff, horse culture, etc) at launch and if they do add it there will be an option to turn it off day one. There’s still stuff to account for the way medieval people viewed the world but it won’t actually be supernatural, a character can be a witch but it just means that they’re herbalists or fortune-tellers or whatever, not that they can spend Dark Power to curse their enemies.

The "oh man you can actually talk to satan" was some of the aidiest poo poo in the game thank god.

My son was a knight serving in the army that I left to defend our capital. The unit was defeated in a real tight battle, but he died on the last day. The victorious army kidnapped and imprisoned my wife on the same day and I had a Mental Breakdown and could either become addicted to drugs or just accept a crippling depression debuff for 6 years.

Nice. What happened to your character after his wife got kidnapped?
